3rd Day: October 4, 2010
Students were given maps based on the books they read from the previous week. They used an online database to look up information about that country and then locate it on the world map. After finishing, they regrouped with their partner from the previous week and presented their information and pie charts to the class.
We had a guest speaker come to class. She is a friend of mine that spent several months in Nairobi in Africa where she volunteered her time at an orphanage. She presented a power point with pictures and music from her trip. She shared her experience and answered questions. They kids enjoyed her visit.
After that everyone came up with questions that they thought were important to know for their creation of, “If Schenectady Were A Village. Using those questions, we created a survey that will go out to our students at King.
